Shaking from large earthquakes provides hints about something different at the center of the planet. By Kenneth Chang The inner core of the Earth appears to hold an innermost secret. Geology textbooks ...

Small magnetic waves have been discovered at Earth's core, with each oscillation working on a seven year cycle. Earth's magnetic field is generated by electric currents generated by the movement of ...

Earth’s inner core has long challenged researchers because seismic waves do not move through it uniformly. Compressional waves generated by earthquakes travel roughly 3 to 4 percent faster along Earth ...

The waves creep across the outer core every seven years. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Scientists have detected a completely ...

Earth’s solid inner core appears to have changed shape in the past 20 years or so, according to seismic wave measurements – but the behaviour of these waves could also be explained by other shifts at ...

Scientists calculated the diameter of Earth's innermost core using earthquake waves that bounced through the planet 'like ping-pong balls.' When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

The data collected with the InSight lander revealed properties of the Martian core that could indicate why it is unfriendly to life. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

A recent studypublished on arXiv sheds light on an astonishing discovery at the core of the Milky Way Galaxy. There, a complex symphony of gravitational waves is being generated by a multitude of ...

A new study could help us understand how our planet was formed. Scientists report that their research shows that Earth's inner core is solid -- a finding made possible by a new method for detecting ...
